Scraggy Crochet Pattern

Finally a new pattern! I have to say I love Scraggy, his tough attitude and cute clumsiness! I hope you guys have fun making him, the plush is fairly big, a little over a foot tall. I've been working on it off and on for a while and finally had some time to get it done.  I was stuck on an idea for how to do the tail and kept putting it off, it turned out to be my favorite part ^_^ Pattern after the jump.

Making Your Own Crochet Patterns Part 2: Making Shapes!

If people find these type of posts useful I might make it a more regular thing. If anyone has any suggestions for the next post on pattern making let me know too!

Patterns and Tips for Crocheting Different Eye Styles (with Examples)

     This post contains tips and patterns for making various eye shapes (basic round, oval, half-moon, cat's eye, embroidered) in crochet and I've included examples of each. I absolutely cannot cut up felt to save my life, whenever I try the pieces never end up the same size or look the way I want. So over the years I've come up with my own way to crochet them instead, I hope this will be helpful to those of you who struggle with felt as well.
